1. 24 bit color bitmaps in DOS
Are there and utilities to read and write 24 bit bitmaps in DOS? I was going
to hack together a tool to average bitmaps together to emulate motion blur
in POV, but the bitmap tools supplied with Euphoria can only handle bitmaps
up to 256 colors.
There are a number of tools for converting 24 bit bitmaps into 8 bit colors,
but they are lossy. I'm looking for something that will deal with 24 bit
bitmaps without degeneration. I don't need to display them, only read,
modify, and write them.
Thanks.

Never mind, I found a macro for doing it internally in POV. Still, it would
be nice if Euphoria would support 24 bit bitmaps.

Yeah, I needed it too once, but couldnt find it. You know what would be
nice? If Euphoria would support all image formats (jpg...) Maybe by linking
it with ImageMagick library or something. But then I guess it would be too
big (the exe). Maybe better would be good dll warpped in .ew for image
manipulation.
